6 Patterns that are involved with Public Speaking:
1) Structure-function
2) comparison-and-contrast
3) pro-and-con also called advantages-disadvantages
4) claim-and-proof
5) multiple-definition
6) fiction-fact pattern
The difference between conclusion and closure?
Conclusion is important because it is often the part of speech that the audience remembers most clearly. It is a summary of what you presented in the body of your presentation. Closure, on-the-otherhand, is generally the final idea in a presentation. It can be a quotation, a question, a thank you to the audience, or a reference back to the introduction.
